Fortnite Mobile release date: How to sign up for iOS, Android gameplay test

Mobile sign ups are live on iOS and Android.

Epic set Fortnite Mobile sign ups live this afternoon, although the website has struggled to keep up with demand.

Fortunately, when the website has been working, signing up for Fortnite Mobile is simple.

How to sign up for Fortnite Mobile on iOS…

iOS users can sign up for the Fortnite Mobile gameplay test by following THIS LINK.

After following another link on the Fortnite website, fans will be asked to insert their email address.

New players will have to create an Epic account, where they will be asked to supply their email address and create a password.

Once registered, users will be asked to select from a list of compatible mobile devices and tablets.

Successful candidates will be sent a code to download the game on iOS, as well as a number of friend codes for other players.

Other players will be placed on a Fortnite Mobile waiting list.

How to sign up for Fortnite Mobile on Android…

The application process for Fortnite Mobile on Android is the same as iOS. Sign ups are available from THIS LINK.

Fans will need to enter email addresses, create an account and select their preferred device.

Unfortunately, however, the Android version won’t be released until later this year.

“Thanks for your patience! We expect to rollout Android in the next few months.

“If you are on an Android device, please sign up by clicking the button above. We’ll notify you when your Android device is supported.”

When will I receive my Fortnite Mobile code?

Epic Games has already sent out the first wave of iOS invites for Fortnite Mobile.

Fans yet to receive a code will be placed on a waiting list.

It’s unclear when the next wave of invites will be released, but an Epic Games blog post suggests the wait won’t be long.

“New invites will roll out as the servers can handle more players,” Epic explained.

Android users, meanwhile, will need to wait a “few months” for Fortnite Mobile to launch.
